I've been having this problem, my wifi icon isn't blue anymore it is just grey now. I read that is because I'm not connected to Google's services. And in fact I'm not able to access to Gmail or play store. But I can go normally to Facebook or simply write this on tapatalk.
This never happened before, but today I rooted my tablet with motochopper, maybe that's involved?
Please help me!

Try going in using an app like Titanium Backup and wiping the data from Google Play. DO NOT DELETE IT! lol. Reboot the tablet and try signing back in to Play. You may also need to go into your settings and make sure you've got it set to sync with Google.

Hi all,
I have a strange problem concerning the syncing of my bookmarks in the stock browser. For a while I have been syncing my bookmarks with my google account and I have restored them a couple of times. I even restored them yesterday when I changed from TF101 to Padfone... The bookmarks worked today. But this afternoon I did a hard reset and logged in on my Google account. But now I don't have an option to save my bookmarks under my Google account (so I couldn't restore them either). I only see my local bookmarks. I tried logging in into the Google Dashboard and deleting all Chrome bookmarks, but that didn't bring back the option to save my new bookmarks under my Google acount in the stock browser. Can anyone help me?

I have the same issue; my windows chrome bookmarks no longer appear on my ICS TF101 chrome. No fix that I know of, yet. If I find one, I'll post.
Mine works just fine. But maybe you could try reinstall the gapps package. And make sure to check the bookmark syc.
Just a thought.

I am using chrome, and I forgot to enable synch'ing in chrome. The tablet was set up, through settings, to synch email, and I thought that was all I needed to do. Maybe the stock browser has a similar setting that you can toggle.

I found the reason. Asus decided to remove the option from the newest firmware (it's for my PadFone, so that's why TF101 has no problems with syncing).
Thanks for the ideas and help guys!
My Nexus 7 was updated a couple of minutes ago (through the OTA) and after it was complete I headed to Google Play online (on my computer) and my Nexus 7 wasn't listed as a device. I am able to read emails, install apps etc. on my Nexus 7 but it just doesn't show up on my devices. Any ideas or how to fix this? Thanks..
I had the same problem I sorted it by first trying to see if I could log into Google talk, it failed so then I went to accounts and removed my Google account from the device then I rebooted and added the the account again then I was able to log in as normal hope this helps ya.

Yes this did the trick. Thanks...
To stop my Google Play from stopping whenever I tried to open it, I had to remove the Play apk and odex from /system/app and replace with the apk I extracted from the full 4.1.2 system.img.
Sounds like you removed from your device from Google Play, as many did before you, by clearing Google framework. Just waiting a bit would've fixed it just as well. Aside from not seeing your device, your emails aren't pushed to it either for a while, it only does a man refresh when you open it.
I am not sure if this has been posted here yet but it's worked for me.
For those who have updated to jelly bean and lost the stock browser sync option this will restore it.
It just involves downloading an apk that was left out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1945119
If you get any sync problems like not getting all bookmarks (which happened to me) you may have to delete your chrome sync data from Google dashboard first and then re-sync. You might also have to clear data on stock browser to to reset it.
I tested it on my TF300T and works great

Last night I updated my older version of N7 to android 4.4.But when I tried to install any program from google play,I was unable to do it,it just won't start at all...I dunno what is the problem and what should I do to revert back everything to normal,previously I managed to install anything on 4.3.

Nope It didn't help.I'm still unable to install anything...
Just wait some time google services are not synced properly. For me after flashing it takes some time before my google services are sync then i use them normally. If it wont work then removing and adding account might work if not then u need a factory reset.

Google doesnt sync WiFi passwords. Those are saved in the phone, not to your google account. You have to manually enter all WiFi passwords on the new phone.

Damn, learn something new everyday.
Yup very annoying. It says right on the setup screen it syncs wifi passwords but I've never seen it work.

It has always worked for me actually... no matter what phone or tablet, wifi passwords always synced... but with S5... it's like it does not even know me...
I'll add that the network names and passwords were there for me as well when I activated my account on the S5. I was actually kind of surprised to see it all there.
Looks like I'm one of the unlucky ones it didn't sync for. Anyone find a way to force a sync from Google or a 3rd party workaround? I'm trying to get passwords from a rooted VZW GNex to a rooted VZW S5. I already tried backing up the Wi-Fi access points on the GNex in TiBu and restoring them on the S5 but no go. Thanks in advance for any ideas anyone might have.

You can download Wi-Fi recovery from play store on both devices, on the one with all your Wi-Fi password hit export file then on the s5 you can import the file, then your all set.
I would *NOT* recommend using app for exporting WiFi data, mentioned above. Looking at the reviews many are saying that it doesn't work and is malware, which is actually feasible since it requires root. All the app is really doing is copying/pasting the /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf file. So instead of trusting a badly reviewed root-required app just get Root Browser and copy paste the file.

After a hard-long internet search I've discovered that there's an alternative way in which you can eventually recover the information from google's own servers since that's where your device (or past devices) backups/backed up your data. The following link is a guide to this option.
http://jftr.de/2014/01/fairphone-and-android-backups-to-the-google-cloud/
As a reminder, you're the only one responsible for any possible damages involved when "tinkering" with your phone. Adb and root are necessary, so please refrain yourself from continuing if you don't even know these words!
Cheers
